Profile

Bill's approach to wealth management is consultative, objective and committed to excellence.  First, he takes the time to listen and to review client financial situations, preferences and goals. Once those goals and preferences are clearly defined, Bill and his team develop financial strategies designed to assist a client in accomplishing their wealth management goals while keeping a keen eye on mitigating risk in line with the client's preferences.  Most importantly, Bill and his team methodically review those financial recommendations with the client, keeping them engaged and informed on their progress in order to help give the client the best chance of achieving their goals.

Bill is active in the Little Egg Harbor School District serving on the Citizens Advisory Council, coaching children's soccer and is an Adult leader for The South Jersey Council of the Boy Scouts of America.  He and his wife, Jennifer, live in Little Egg Harbor, NJ with their two children

Professional Staff

Supported by the global resources of Merrill, my team is comprised of talented and experienced individuals committed to building strong client relationships based on trust and personalized service.

Where do we begin? It starts with you.

At Merrill Lynch Wealth Management, your financial advisor focuses on the things you care about most- family, goals and priorities - even as they change over the years.

Understanding Your Life

Welcome

My mission, first and foremost, is to understand you and what matters most to you. Armed with that information I can ask thoughtful questions -- listening carefully, then understanding in detail where your wealth stands today and where you’d like it to be tomorrow. I help you design and implement a personalized plan intended to help you and your family pursue financial goals while helping manage investment risk. My approach is to focus on potential solutions that can help turn goals into reality.

Our Philosopy

The World is a complex place.  Our financial lives are complex. We recognize the varying degrees of complexity that exist in our clients’ lives today. Our team’s mission is to leverage our collective knowledge, insight and skill sets to simplify these complexities and to better anticipate the financial challenges that may arise as our clients work towards their life goals.
Our team follows a disciplined and repeatable process consisting of four (4) critical elements: Identification, Implementation, Communication and Continuance.   We begin this process by asking the two most fundamental and profound questions that keep most everyone up at night: “Will I make it?” and “Do I have any financial blind spots?”  The answers we uncover assist us in creating:

A comprehensive assessment of your family’s goals and priorities
And
A customized Wealth Management strategy designed to fulfill those goals and priorities

Our Goals Based Wealth Management Approach places our clients’ goals and aspirations as the focal point of the wealth management process. We then begin the process of allocating assets to attain those goals. Depending on the client’s objectives and the asset level, we offer both customizable portfolio solutions and our proprietary personalized portfolio solutions. In addition, we routinely leverage the investment resources of Merrill and banking capabilities of Bank of America to provide strategies to risk, liability and legacy planning issues.

Focus On Individuals, Families and Small Businesses

I believe that financial success can be achieved when you’re able to make investment-related decisions and trade-offs that can help you reach personally meaningful goals. Whether you’re planning your retirement, saving to buy a home or funding a child’s education, the process begins by getting to know you and how you feel about the following:

  • Health: Managing healthcare expenses, now and in the future
  • Home: Upsizing, downsizing, remodeling or buying a vacation home
  • Family: Taking care of your family and other people in your life
  • Leisure: Spending your free time in meaningful ways
  • Giving: Volunteering, mentoring others and giving to charities
  • Work: Working in retirement, selling or starting a business
  • Finance: Bringing it all together and defining your financial goals

Success will be measured by the amount of progress you are making toward reaching your goals, making thoughtfully considered adjustments as events and conditions warrant.
